Well, I dove in headfirst this afternoon and downloaded the KNFB OCR app for 
blind users.  It definitely takes practice positioning the camera to get a 
good picture before reading much is possible.  I tried a few times 
experimenting taking a picture of my Icom 7000 front panel and got a couple 
of words to display so that will take some work.  I pulled down off my 
shelve a manual, not having any idea which one, and took a picture and 
realized it was my autotuner manual so I tried the first page and got quite 
a block of text.  It wasn't perfect but my positioning of the camera isn't 
perfect yet either.  It has a button which tries telling you if you are 
correctly lined up and which way to move to center the text before snapping 
an actual picture.  I'm glad it was 100 dollars and not 500 because you know 
how blind people hate paying too much for adaptive type stuff; especially 
blind hams.  You know, we'll buy a 12 thousand dollar transceiver and bitch 
about how expensive a coax connecter is these days, at least the last bunch 
of connecters I bought a couple of years ago blew me away.  I mean, I nearly 
gave up the hobby just over the couple of elbow coax connecters I needed, 
haha.  I had no idea they were that expensive.  Anyhow, I'll report more as 
I practice getting the camera in my phone pointed better.  I've got a 
vending stand buddy who is using it at his stand on his candy machine, cases 
of pop, and all sorts of paperwork.  Now, the next thing I'm going to buy, 
when I can afford it, is a 70 dollar Icom software package loaded down with 
tons of hot keys and with the software developer who is willing to help 
blind hams, owning various Icom radios, make changes to his software and 
answer his own dad blamed emails within a couple of  hours.  Try and beat 
that.

Phil.
